Shen Huan had some concerns in her heart, but she didn't show anything.
He was not afraid of Japanese people, and he never felt that what he did was wrong.
Back then, they cheated, kidnapped and even plundered countless treasures. Now Shen Huan gets some of them back, just with interest.
However, if it is not necessary, it is naturally better to keep it a secret.
Therefore, Shen Huan was ready to take another look to see what tricks they were planning to play.
Now that Xie Yang had left, Shen Huan asked Mururu to take him with him to see what exquisite products the Japanese had brought.
Without saying a word, Mururu took Shen Huan directly to the place where her father was standing just now.
"Here, this is it." Mururu pointed to a copybook that was about one meter long and about 50 centimeters wide. "Yan Zhenqing's "Book of Discussing Huzhou General Affairs with Chang Yifu" is a national treasure!"
She was afraid that Shen Huan would not know the details, so she continued to explain, "Chang Yifu is Chang Gun, the prime minister of the Tang Dynasty, and a descendant of Yan Zhenqing. When Yan Zhenqing was demoted to Huzhou, Chang Gun became the Minister of Rites and was the official of the imperial court. A very powerful person. Therefore, Yan Zhenqing often exchanged political affairs with him, and this is one of their letters."
It goes without saying how famous Yan Zhenqing is.
After Wang Xizhi, if we talk about the three major calligraphers, Yan Zhenqing may not be ranked among them.
But if we talk about the achievements in running script alone, there is no problem that Yan Zhenqing ranks among the top three.
His most famous piece of writing, "A tribute to my nephew and a tribute to the good doctor Ji Mingwen", is also commonly known as the "Manuscript of a memorial to my nephew", which is recognized as the second running script in the world.
The first line of script is "Preface to the Lanting Collection".
From this we can know Yan Zhenqing's achievements in calligraphy.
Even overall, among calligraphers with more than 2,000 years of history, even if Yan Zhenqing is not ranked in the top three, the top ten is still relatively stable.
It's a bit strange to say it.
This master of calligraphy first learned from the master of regular script Chu Suiliang, but his teacher was Zhang Xu, the sage of cursive script. However, he was most accomplished in running script.
Su Shi once said: "Poetry is as good as Du Zimei's, writing is as good as Han Tuizhi's, painting is as good as Wu Daozi's, and writing is as good as Yan Lugong's. The changes in ancient and modern times are all that the world can do."
To be compared with Du Fu, Han Yu, and Wu Daozi, Yan Zhenqing is absolutely awesome.
Yan Zhenqing's loyalty to the country and his integrity in death added to his personality charm, which made his works more and more popular.
In contrast, the calligraphy of many traitorous officials is also very good, but they have been deliberately downplayed in history.
For example, the Song style we write in daily life was created with Qin Hui's font.
Zhao Gao, who refers to deer as horses, is the best calligrapher in the world when it comes to writing large seal scripts.
Cai Jing, one of the six thieves in the late Northern Song Dynasty, was so outstanding in calligraphy that even Emperor Huizong of the Song Dynasty felt inferior to him.
Etc., etc.
But their calligraphy works have never been popular.
The topic has gone too far.
Since it is the work of Yan Zhenqing, who wrote the "Manuscript for Nephew Sacrifice", the price of this "Discussing the General Affairs of Huzhou with Chang Yifu", which has at least two to three hundred words, is quite high.
In addition, the left and right sides are surrounded by the seals of famous collectors of various generations. The promotion of celebrities from various dynasties and generations fully proves that its inheritance is orderly.
Therefore, before Shen Huan could ask about the price, Mu Ruru had already quoted it: "The share price of the teachers just now is about 300 million yuan. If it can be put on the auction, it may even be higher."
Shen Huan nodded, "The price is not expensive."
Wang Xizhi's original works have long since disappeared, and now only Yan Zhenqing's original works exist. So no matter from every aspect, Yan Zhenqing's running script manuscripts are worth the price.
In terms of Chinese antique calligraphy and painting, masterpieces by famous artists are definitely the ones that attract everyone’s attention the most.
The more famous one is, the more so.
Even those works that have been proven to be probably fakes, such as works by Wang Xizhi and Su Shi, are worth two to three hundred million.
Not to mention the price of Yan Zhenqing's works, it is already a miracle that they have been carefully and completely preserved to this day.
"These people in ancient times were so powerful. Maybe they didn't expect that their works would be so valuable in the future, right?" Mururu sighed.
"That's not true," Shen Huan said, "At that time, Yan Zhenqing's calligraphy works were very valuable. It is possible that such a copybook could be worth hundreds of gold."
"boast!"
Mururu didn't believe it.
"You know that Yan Zhenqing's teacher is Cao Sheng Zhang Xu, right?" Shen Huan asked her.
"heard."
"There are historical records that after Zhang Xu became famous, he had a poor acquaintance in his hometown who couldn't make it through life, so he asked someone to write to him, asking him to help him." Shen Huan talked eloquently, "The result Zhang Xu wrote a letter to him and told him to count the number of words in the letter and then sell it to a rich person. One word is worth one tael of gold, so every penny is a lot."
"Scare~~ You lied to me~~" Mururu's beautiful big eyes widened, "How could you be so awesome?"
"Little girl, your boyfriend didn't lie to you." An old man came next to him. He didn't seem to recognize Shen Huan or Mu Ruru. He smiled and said, "This story is very famous. Zhang Xu's cursive script It was very valuable at that time. This is the same reason as Wang Youjun's works were robbed during their Jin Dynasty."
Mu Ruru blushed and quickly pulled Shen Huan away.
I just don't know whether she is blushing because of her lack of knowledge, or because the old man misunderstood her and Shen Huan.
Next, she took Shen Huan around the hall for a while.
Shen Huan found that there was quite a lot in this tasting exhibition.
In addition to the "Book of Discussing the General Affairs of Huzhou with Chang Yifu", the Abe family also has a masterpiece by the great Ming Dynasty painter Xu Wei, which is worth hundreds of millions.
Shen Huan had seen two or three of the remaining dozen paintings and copybooks, but it was a pity that Shen Huan had not seen the two best ones.
Last time in the Abe family's treasure house, Shen Huan clearly emptied two large safes of Chinese calligraphy and paintings, so how could anything slip through the net
It seems that the Abe family is also not honest. They know what the three holes of cunning rabbits are.
I think these two calligraphy and paintings are either placed in another inconspicuous corner or in another treasure house.
Otherwise, how could Shen Huan miss it
And this time the Abe family was willing to use calligraphy and painting so generously, which further proved their intentions.
Not only the Abu family, but Akira Odawara and Joji Kameda also brought out a lot of treasures.
What they are most proud of are the paintings and copybooks from the Ming and Qing Dynasties, and even the imperial edicts were brought out in a volume, which highlights the rich variety and high quality of their collections.
This makes it even more exquisite than the last time, making people reluctant to leave after looking at it.
Gradually, there were more and more people here, reaching almost a hundred people.
